A Little Roadie

Oh wait, gotta back up here.

The trip started with the sweetest note and

bag full of personalized goodies from

the one and only Jamie!

We can't believe how thoughtful she is!!!

The licorice was the first thing gone

(and no ill side effects, believe it or not).

You were so missed and if you double book again,

you'll just have to bring your fam with us!

Riley getting the party started.
And after a slightly longer ride than anticipated
(let's not go pointing fingers now)
we FINALLY arrived!

On the way to Sammy's for dinner.
For Nikki and Riley, fashionable feet

were not to be compromised.
After all how far could 11 blocks really be?
Stopped at Horton Plaza after dinner for a little shopping.


Paigers with first purchase of the trip.

The signature pose.
Lovin those heels.
Except when it came time for the little race home.
We admittedly cut the corner and
left those two and their heels in the dust.
Try as they might, their heels were no match for our flats.
First lesson of this roadie....leave the fancy shoes home.

Back at the unit.
We were loving the Beach Boys Concert
coming from the Aircraft Carrier
and the fireworks that followed.
Pretty sweet first night!



On the ride out, I took a little heat
for wearing my favorite scrunchy.
For all you who mocked me,
I have some news for you.
My true friend Sarah landed on grundles of 'em at Forever 21.
Guess what girls?
Stock up cuz they're back.


Scrunchy Heaven

Then Paige's near miss with Purgatory
when she nearly got thrown
out of the place for taking these
pics which was strictly against store policy.

Had to stop off for manis and pedis.
Lovin them Spring colors
which were not matchy matchy,
but rather coordinated quite nicely.


We took the ferry to Coronodo Island
where we rented bikes and took the island by storm.

Dippin our toes in the icy Pacific.

Our next vaca spot is gonna be the Hotel Del.

Golden laced sand on our feeties!

The beautiful ride back to the ferry.

Looking like a scene from the Sound of Music to me.

Best seats on the boat.

But I think this guy liked his seat pretty good.

Paige and Riley were likin' it too.

The spot for girl talk.

Lots went down in the elevator.

I would like to thank this nice

man for taking our picture

and not stealing my camera

even after I accused him of attempting to.

Cute Erica met us for dinner.

Then Sarah showed us the art of eating

TWINKIES!!!

Monkeying around Seaport Village

looking for souveniers for the kids.

Most Memorable:

Nikki's calm driving until...

4 girls simultaneoulsy were yelling at me,

"You don't know the address???"

My reply: "I'm pretty sure it's one of these tall buildings."

Paigers reminding every guy that walked on the elevator with us,

"Must be your lucky day"

Jon and Riley's Text

(ruined that question for me forever)

Mall security coming down on us for our loud behavior.

2:30 am talks with Riley

Hot tubbing and "the unit."

Paige loving the moisture.

Me loving my new PJs.

Most Laughable:

Attack of the birds while on the bike

and nearly killing Sarah as I swerved to miss them.

Sarah and me back to back

running over the poor kid's frisbee

and the kid yelling at us,

"THANKS A LOT!"

Sarah"s surprise walking out of the bathroom.

My pedestrian skills.

And most of all my impecable knack of knowing

exactly where I am and how to get to where I'm going.
Loved every minute!
